The federal inquiries rattled investors, causing Acadia\u2019s stock to plummet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But Acadia\u2019s troubles have been a boon to the company\u2019s chief executive, Christopher Hunter. Its board of directors awarded him a $1.8 million bonus to help respond to \u201cunprecedented governmental inquiries,\u201d according to a financial filing this month. The bonus comes on top of his regular compensation, which totaled more than $7 million in 2024.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Acadia\u2019s chief financial officer and general counsel were also granted bonuses of about $1 million, and the chief operating officer was promised $600,000. Acadia said the bonuses, which will be paid in March of next year, were awarded to ensure that the leaders did not leave before the investigations were completed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The company\u2019s board decided that keeping its leadership team was \u201cin the best long-term interest of the company and the patients and communities it serves,\u201d said Tim Blair, a spokesman for Acadia. \u201cThe company follows a pay-for-performance philosophy, using peer market data for benchmarking and calibration,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The Times reported that Acadia was holding patients against their will in order to maximize insurance payouts. Some patients arrived at emergency rooms seeking routine mental health care but were sent to Acadia facilities, where they were locked inside and isolated from their families. The practices began before Mr. Hunter became chief executive, in April 2022, but continued under his watch, The Times found.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The company has forcefully denied any misconduct and said it would cooperate with the investigations. \u201cThe allegation that Acadia systematically holds patients longer than medically necessary is false and goes directly against everything we do and stand for when it comes to patient care,\u201d Mr. Hunter told investors in October.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">After the article was published, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/09\/27\/business\/acadia-federal-investigations.html\" title=\"\">Acadia told investors<\/a> that several government agencies, including the Justice Department and the Securities and Exchange Commission, had begun investigations. In October, executives disclosed that admissions to their facilities were not as high as expected. That same month, shareholders brought a class-action lawsuit against the company, arguing that Acadia concealed its practices from investors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The Times also found problems in other parts of Acadia\u2019s businesses, including its <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/12\/07\/health\/acadia-methadone-clinics-fraud.html\" title=\"\">methadone clinics<\/a>, which were billing the government for services, like counseling, that it did not provide. And inadequate staffing led to a series of tragedies at one of the company\u2019s prized women\u2019s facilities, The Times <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/04\/22\/business\/acadia-timberline-knolls-suicide-rape.html\" title=\"\">reported<\/a> Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Since September, the company has lost roughly $5 billion of its market value and is now worth about $2 billion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Like many chief executives, Mr. Hunter\u2019s compensation is tied in part to Acadia\u2019s share value. In 2024, the company\u2019s falling stock led him to miss his performance goals, which lowered his pay, according to the April filing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But Sarah Anderson, an executive compensation analyst at the Institute for Policy Studies, a left-leaning think tank, said that those incentives are undermined when companies like Acadia give bonuses <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2021\/04\/24\/business\/ceos-pandemic-compensation.html\" title=\"\">despite poor performance<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThe whole argument of tying your compensation to the stock price is so that the executives will bear risk of their actions,\u201d she said. \u201cThis is just going completely against that.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/04\/24\/health\/acadia-bonuses.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last year was tough for Acadia Healthcare, one of the country\u2019s largest providers of mental health services.
